Seniors Received Graduation
Announcements Wednesday
Seniors enjoyed a visit with Mr. Rusty Parker, Balfour representative, when Mr. Parker delivered graduation announcements last Wednesday morning in the school cafeteria. Each senior paid their remaining balance if there was one and then was given the opportunity to check their order for accuracy before Mr. Parker headed for his next destination.
Some seniors were plerplexed by the number of envelopes included with their graduation announcements. It was explained, to those that asked, that the larger envelope was for mailing purposes and the recipients' proper names, Mr. and Mrs. John Doe, were to be used with their address. The smaller envelope that will contain the actuall announcement should be used to address the recipient with a more familial salutation such as Uncle John and Aunt Mary. It is advised that graduation announcements be mailed about one month in advance of the special occassion.
During the commencement exercise practice, students will be given their 20 admission tickets for the ceremony that night.





Hail to Thee our Alma Mater,
True to Thee we'll be;
Loyal now to thee forever,
Memories we'll keep.
Through the bright,
Bright days before us
You will guide us through,
Hail to thee,
Our Abbeville classmates,
'Til in Heaven we meet.

Academic Team's Rebirth
The Abbeville High School Academic Team has risen from obscurity and begun to form a new era. A meeting with interested students was held Thursday, March 20 during which plans to participate in two upcoming academic events was discuseed as well as times for after school practice. Ms. Andrea Dismukes, the new English teacher, and Mr. Keith Brown will sponsor the team.
Through questionaires as to when the students were available for practice, Wednesday will be the day of choice. Practice will begin immediately after school each Wednesday to prepare for the first tournament to be held Friday, April 18 at EOCC in Enterprise. The other competition, The Knowledge Master Open, is scheduled for Wednesday, April 23.
The tournament at EOCC is one with the usual buzzers for toss-up questions followed by a team bonus question when a toss-up question is answered correctly. The team will consist of 4 students and 1 alternate.
The Knowledge Master Open is a different type of competition in that as many students can participate as the team deems appropriate. The competition consists of answering 200 multiple choice questions on a computer. The answer entered is determined by a poll of the participating students. Once the questions have been answered, the score along with a computer-generated code is called in to the competition's headquarters for inclusion in the final results around the world. Results are mailed to participating schools which ranks schools according to international participation as well as individual state rankings. In the fall of 2007, Hoover High School was the top Alabama school with a 20th place finish internationally. Abbeville will be one of about 19 schools competing in the spring competition.
